Country Living October 2014 Magazine


Country Living October 2014 - it's very thin (sigh) and light on Halloween content--maybe it's not so light if you consider just how thin the issue is to put it in perspective. I have to say that I am a bit disappointed this year, the content is a bit blander than past October issues of Country Living. I'm pretty underwhelmed this year. I did like the cat garland shown below--they do have an article on treats and I did like the masked squirrel decoration in the background ;) There's a pumpkin decorating article--including the "rubber band spiderweb" one below...Also the page of crafts of which the cat garland might be the best, was a little on the blah side.
